Jesus fuck. No wonder this niggas brain isn't functioning.

Having an egg head? In this economy?

Technology generally does whatever you tell it to and the surveillance options are nuts. Any tech is gonna be used by shitbags if they can benefit from it. The problem is when someone is connected or has money they can be a literal sociopath and gain positions of power where they attempt to control people like they would devices, and sometimes no one stops them for a long time.

Oh my god I legit thought to myself “how was that egg 40 eggs” when I played it before watching this.
Thank you for this. I’ve only seen a couple episodes, I’ll have to watch more.

I agree. He is probably not an egg creature, and probably not a freak.

He's not a tech nerd any more than Elon is. They're just 80s business guys who are riding the tech wave instead of whatever the fuck the wave was in the 80s...so...cocaine?

If I ask you to body shame, is it not cruel to do so?

And then a couple thousand years from now we have the butlerian jihad, thanks.

Ok, that is a good point, I can absolutely see that I may be wrong to call is fascist, but it is definitely authoritarian, where the coders decide the rules and the program enforces them, I can see that applying a left/right political bias can be wrong.

Damn, I just replied with the same picture, scrolled down, saw yours, scrolled up and deleted my reply.

Code is a language that can describe all sorts of systems, some of those systems have rigid hierarchies and some of those systems are distributed.
Software development teams also tend to work in collaborative ways, as much as Agile and Scrum development practices are bastardized in many large companies the core philosophies are very worker-empowering.
In the cases where companies use "waterfall" or misuse Agile the culprit seems to be managerial interference or very rigid and important requirements (e.g. a plane software system that must not fail)
I see your point, but per the above I would say it's not universal and I would also counter that software architects have very open-ended solutions to choose from and are used to thinking about a system as a whole, which in my case at least leads me to questioning how our political and social systems can change for the better.

I totally get it. I just feel for the normal everyday person who has an unusual head shape that they are self conscious about being hurt by this instead of the asshole billionaire who deserves it. It's like making fun of him for being fat or short.. Innocent people catch the strays. I stand against body shaming. But I feel you.

Head like an egg, head like an egg, his head is shaped like an egg

This is the reality. Not these pseudo-psych takes. Learning to program made me more socialist, as I realised the entire internet, and success of modern computing and information systems, was mostly the result of FOSS (socialist) software. Walled gardens and proprietary software are now the bane of my existence.
If you look deeper into every tech billionaire/oligarch, most of them were already born into the richest 1%; all born on 3rd base and believing they hit a home run.
I am now nearly certain that extreme wealth and power create the mental illness of narcissism (or at least surfaces/activates these tendencies, suppresses empathy, etc). Add in the fact that capitalism actively rewards narcissistic and criminal actions, and you end up with nothing but criminally corrupt narcissists.
